The History of Shabu Shabu
![[IMAGE]](img/j50.jpg)
|
Tradition and folklore tell us that Shabu Shabu cooking dates back to the 13th
Century and Genghis Khan.
As he built his power and became ruler of Mongolia, Khan assembled a massive and
highly-organized army.
As he widened his domination throughout China and Eurasia, his army was
constantly on the move.
He developed "hot pot" or Shabu Shabu form of cooking as a way to feed his troops.
The hungry troops would gather around a large pot of boiling water and dip their
thinly sliced meat into the pot. |
Purpose of the "hot pot" was to feed the troops efficiently, nutritiously, and to save on
the army's limited fuel resources. By using thinly sliced meat, troops were able to cook the
meat very quickly and efficiently absorbing all of the nutrition of the meat.
The "hot pot" method of cooking survived over the centuries in different regions of China
and went through many changes as time passed on.... In 1948, a small restaurant owner in
Osaka, Kansai introduced Shabu Shabu cooking to Japan, and within few years Japan
introduced Shabu Shabu cooking to the world, today it has gained immense popularity
throughout the world.
